Chapter 15 - 15. Dragons essence

The attack auddenly stopped, the roof flying off as a man in golden robes with an air of nobility and wickedness about him and two large and fierce looking beasts descended into the place, while everyone cowered in fear. Emma was kneeling on the floor besides Elora and Yue when he walked towards her a mean smile on his face, "Silver moon, what a pleasant surprise" he knelt beside her and healed Elora's hand before Emma grabbed him by the neck. "Rave, so it was you" He brushed it off like he was brushing off dirt, getting back to his feet, he walked around a wicked smile on his face as everyone moved back in fear once he got near them. "Father" Elora called out as soon as she stirred up, "Yes" he answered, turning to look at her with a look of fake surprise on his face. "Is mother alright" she asked getting to her feet with Emma's help. Her hand was back in place, she rotated it, and stretched her fingers,and they were working fine. "Yes, she is just sleeping outside" he answered his eyes on Emma. She quickly Climbed up the wall and went out to find her mother who lay outside on the floor, covered in blood.

Emma walked towards him boiling with rage. "Oh my god, you are still as scary as ever" he said as she approached him. "And I thought you would have finally grown up" he moved back in mock fear and started laughing, before his face turned to anger, as they both glared at each other with pure hatred. "At least we still agree on some things, like our hatred for one another" he said his face a mask of detachment. A man jumped down into the place and whispered something into his ears, his face darkening with anger, "that witch" he swore, inhaling deeply to calm himself.

He walked to where Yue lay, a fond smile on his face "you brought him back" he stated bending beside him, he healed him up, a frown distorting his face. "Its not Jair!" He said in confusion. "Who is this human?" Emma ignored his words and drew Yue out of his sight.

He sat on a high throne in the midst of the destruction inspecting his rings and fingers while his people who had killed many of the Bato people were assisting in clearing out the dead, and leading the others to their homes which was still intact. Emma badly wanted to kill him, to wipe of the condescending smile on his face, but she was too weak, and drained and she knew that he knew it.

"Where is the dragons essence?" He asked, his question directed to Dena. She glared at him, strongly resisting the urge to kill him knowing he would crush her. "You won't ever get it" she answered, leaning against her chair, her eyes closed, it had been one long night. "I will kill you, one of this days" she promised, and he smirked "sure honey" he stood up from his seat a serious look on his face and walked to where she sat. "You saw what I did tonight, you should know that I would not hesitate to kill them all by now" he said turning to walk away "three days" he said and walked away.
